Just wondering about swarm poundage.This last big swarm I recovered was enough to fill 2 ten frame deeps.With a medium super on and being well worked. They were crowded with out the medium added.Question is, How many pounds would you beekers say was in this swarm? doak

Sorry, didn't get any pic's. Could not have posted them.One of these swarms that never did ball up. They were laid out along a limb and didn't even cluster at night. About as big around as a quart jar and 6 to 8 feet in length. First one I have ever seen like that. doak
